Dear palo, this Englishman lived in New York and all over America for 35 years. The post you refer to, was someone masquerading as myself saying he was Granny's abandoned son left on the steps of convent and bumming the airfare to Florida to become Grannies heir.
That evil person saw a picture of Grannie's house and swimming pool in Cape Coral and himself being in desperate straits, on parole with unpaid rent living in a rat infested tenement,was seeking to improve his lot in life. He almost got another offer, which was rather attractive, to timeshare his place with the Country Club set. Yes he was ignorant of the geography of the US of A. That was his undoing but your world traveling AC is indeed a geographical maven.
